For those of you new to the sport of kiteboarding I can give you some short details. Kitesurfing involves using a large foil style kite attached the rider via harness and handle bar. The kitesurfer uses a small surfboard or wakeboard style board to glide across the water. Kiting is relatively easy to learn as the skills can be acquired through a few good kiting lessons. The best thing about kiteboarding is that you can catch incredible amounts of air and achieve hangtimes that will blow your mind. Grab some gear and head to the river.
